According the present invention there is provided a method for adjusting a component handling assembly, the component handling assembly comprising, a plurality of stations at least some of which have a nest which can receive a component, and a rotatable turret having a plurality of component handling heads, and wherein the turret can rotate to transport components between the plurality of stations, the method comprising the steps of, capturing a first image of a reference element located at a first station, using a camera which is located on the rotatable turret; identifying the position in the first image of the center of the reference element; rotating the turret so that the camera on the turret is in a position where it can capture a second image of nest of a second station; capturing a second image of the nest of the second station, using said camera; identifying the position in the second image of the center of the nest of the second station; superimposing a marker on the second image at the same position as the position of the center of the reference element in the first image; adjusting the second station until the position in the second image of the center of the nest of the second station is aligned with the marker. There is further provided a corresponding component handling assembly.

Device for turning over electronic components, comprising a turntable () for driving the electronic components to be turned over in succession between the following stationary locations: a location (A) for loading them onto the turntable; a start of turning over location (B); an end of turning over location (C); and a location (D) for unloading the turntable. A turning-over device () actuated by a fixed rotating motor (), not linked to said turntable, allows the electronic components to be turned over between the start of turning over position and the end of turning over position.
